Multiple teams have run rampant against the Baltimore Ravens’ front seven this season.
The Ravens have allowed at least 120 yards on the ground in four out of their last six games, including in their home matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams tallied 128 rushing yards on a 4.3 yards per rush attempt average in the contest.
The Ravens currently rank outside the top 10 in rushing yards allowed per game with a 104.2 average.
Ravens linebacker Patrick Queen sees cause for concern with how his team has struggled to stop the run as of late.
"We’re looking at it every way to improve that," Queen said during a press conference on Wednesday. "Honestly, it just comes down to every man owning their gap and doing the best they can. Sometimes, they have numbers on you, and somebody just has to go make a play. You have to take two gaps.
"We’re looking at ways to improve that. Internally — player-wise — we all want to improve on that as well. We’re all talking about it ourselves that one of us might have to go the extra mile to make a play, so if that’s what we have to do, we’ll go do it."
The Ravens will next meet a Jacksonville Jaguars team in Week 15 that has notched a 99.8 rushing yards per game average this season.
